摘要: We report on high-power operation of a cladding-pumped Er,Yb -doped broadband superfluorescent fiber source in the 1.55 μm spectral region. Over 16 W single-ended amplified spontaneous emission output was generated employing simple, all-fiber geometry without use high reflectivity mirror or seed source. The wavelength range spanned from ~1531 nm to 1568.5 with bandwidth (FWHM) ~17 and corresponding slope efficiency respect launched pump power at 975 30.7%.
